GPU WU server down?

**p2501** · 09-24-2008, 08:15 AM

I'm not getting any WU for over half an hour here even though it responds to pings.

**MikeB12** · 09-24-2008, 08:20 AM

yeah, my plate is empty too..

**p2501** · 09-24-2008, 08:26 AM

If you connect via browser like posted in "Do this first" it responds with "ok" though.

Just got a WU via 171.64.122.74.. just a hiccup?

**Polizei** · 09-24-2008, 08:29 AM

I just downloaded a new one about 10 minutes ago.

**Shadowtester** · 09-24-2008, 09:27 AM

Yep I got a fresh one also a little while ago so they must be back up and serving.

**MikeB12** · 10-03-2008, 11:51 AM

This is F@H's way of saying, "Take a short break to play a 3D game on that GPU"?

**p2501** · 10-04-2008, 05:06 AM

With these unstable GPU WU server und some buggy SMP WUs it's no wonder my ppd keeps jumping up and down like crazy. God, I'd wish for stability. Is that asked too much?

**sniperbob** · 10-04-2008, 06:04 AM

i really wish it was up, my gfx card is begging for more work!

**[XC] Synthetickiller** · 10-04-2008, 06:24 AM

I'm still folding on a WU I was doing before i shut off my main computer. 3 Cards now want to upload and it'll be a 4th soon.

They need more servers and better IT. This is annoying.

**Rise** · 10-04-2008, 06:26 AM

I wonder if its possible to catch up to the number of WUs they can put out? I mean with 250k+ people folding, many with multiple GPUs....?

**[XC] Synthetickiller** · 10-04-2008, 07:12 AM

Its working now.

**p2501** · 10-04-2008, 07:28 AM

yeah, 20 mins ago the first wu again. pfft...

**[XC] riptide** · 10-04-2008, 07:58 AM

Yep working now confirmed.

QFT

I posted something along these lines regarding their frequent stats failures and caught flak from peeps. I don't see why we can't be more demanding of SU to improve their infrastructure and management.

I agree with you. They have funding for this project. They can easily buy at least one more server to help with the in going out going data.

My ppd is getting killed over here.

**MikeB12** · 10-04-2008, 08:59 AM

Spoken like a true fah veteran... anyone that's been around the pande game long enough has had a beef with the group's inept management of the project. probably more than one actually. I've been thru quite a few spells myself, where I swore I was gonna quit folding because of it. I actually did one time for about a month, but came back.

**p2501** · 10-04-2008, 12:29 PM

I'm folding since 2002 with little breaks, but back then I never paid attention to points or fah community in general, everything was easy. Just this solid standard client, and boy was I proud as I started folding on my shiny new dual XP WS rig. Now I'm more into points/fah community and all these server failures, broken wu, and stuck up mods and people over at fah forums just spoil all the fun. I'm pretty happy that I joined XS at folding efforts, otherwise I might have already shut down the clients for good.

And I was worried my disdain for the frequent downtime and poorly written clients would be looked down on here.

It seems I fit right in.

For those that might be running ATI GPU2 clients, the server is down. Also the SMP 171.64.122 is down. Both already reported.

**MikeB12** · 10-08-2008, 10:57 AM

171.64.122.74 down again...

and I just got my new 9800gt installed..
it's not even an hr old http://www.newegg.com/Product/Produc...2E16814121268R
it's in desperate need, like a virgin on prom night

GPU server has been up and down more than a hooker's panties recently...

I'm afraid that hookers don't wear unnecessairy stuff. But yes the GPU server has been pretty unstable in the past several days
